I want to try writing some python scripts which execute within xbmc. I've read all of the online documentation and they all seem to point to some mysterious script folder that is part of xbmc. I've done a find / -name 'script' command and cannot find this on my ubuntu 12.04 system. Is there a good book for coding for xbmc or something I am missing?

My $home/.xbmc/userdata does not have a folder named scripts. Should I just create one and put my scipts in there?

think you actually need $home/.xbmc/addons/

Can someone please point me to documentation? I've looked at "Plugin and Script API documentation and other useful links for XBMC Addon Developers" and cannot figure out how to even get a python script to be seen by XBMC, let alone how to execute it from within XBMC.

What exactly do your scripts do? Are they like add-ons that provide some additional functionality/service to XBMC or just something simple like a one-liner to open a window or execute one of XBMC's built-in functions?
